User Testimonials
	Backstage	Tango Card
Likelihood to Recommend	Open Source Backstage is well suited in building developer portal or developer platform. It can be easily customized as well, so different companies can use it based on their own situation. It currently focus more on frontend, but I can see there is already a roadmap for improving backend with some core modules. After that has been introduced, it will become really powerful and save developers time to solve common problems. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Blackhawk Network If you use this program to provide gift cards make sure to warn the recipients to use them asap! In my experience, strange things can happen with on-line purchases. Maybe send a reminder to the recipient explaining that Tango is "banking" on you not to spend all of the funds.

Pros	Open Source developer portal easy to onboard easy to extend Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Blackhawk Network Tango Card is very easy to use and set-up Tango Card makes it easy to allow for multiple gift card options Tango Card allows for excel imports of respondents, which keeps things nice and simple Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Open Source it may provide more modules that can solve common problems Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Blackhawk Network The initial setup of the API with all the ACH info was a bit complicated. The only speedbump (not big concern) is the branding of a Tango Card - when saying that to recipients, they don't "get it" immediately and some quick-to-judgement folks can say they don't want it.

Usability	Open Source No answers on this topic	Blackhawk Network No issues to report = 10. I cannot think of simpler usability in this category. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Open Source No answers on this topic	Blackhawk Network Giving it a 9 only because I haven't been using it for more than 6 months but that said, I've had enough projects and redemptions to get a full understanding of its performance. TANGO CARD just works better than the rest for the redemption experience for the end recipient. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Open Source No answers on this topic	Blackhawk Network We liked Tango Card much more as it was easier to use and had more flexibility within our company. It allowed us to be more creative as well. The scale of cards and ease of use, both front and back end were huge decision points for us. Everything about Tango Card appeared to be much better than Tremendous and we are happy with our choice. Incentivized Max Pollak Digital Advertising Director Read full review
Return on Investment	Open Source It speeds up our progress on building our own developer portal It's free to use so very little investment Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Blackhawk Network Tango Card has increased out survey response rates Tango Card has increase our overall response counts By doing so, some of our board KPIs are better measured Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
